After several “Gah.. let me WIN!!!!” episodes, I completed The Big Score once again. I did the ‘Obvious approach’ this time, to see what’s different than taking four cars, modding them up, and then driving away with them while avoiding the police.
This time, I had to steal a Tunnel Bore from an area with guards all around. Then, I had to hijack a train which would be used to load up the gold after getting it out. After hijacking, I had to fly as Micheal to get the locomotive and a flatbed car off of the train.
Lastly, I had to secure a getaway vehicle. And it was a true getaway vehicle. Had to get bulletproof tires and everything. Then it was just getting into the bank, securing the gold, flying it out, dealing with tons of cops and Merryweather, and then getting the gold to the train to have it melt down.
What made the car a true getaway vehicle? Getting away from the cops, of course. But at the end, it had me hiding on a road that was one way in. With cops swarming all over the place, I feared my hiding spot would be eventually compromised. Thankfully, before they were just about to turn onto the road that I was hiding on, the cops backed off! That was SOOOO close.
After that, I had to deal with Merryweather’s helicopters following the helicopter infront of me (who was hauling the first gold shipment).
Lester went insane using an RPG to bring them down. All I (as Trevor) had to do was keep the helicopter steady enough (and get in close) to take a shot. Once the three helicopters were down, all we had to do was drop off the gold, fly back to the airfield, and celebrate our victory.
And I got to keep the getaway vehicle in Franklin’s garage.
This to me was the better, less pussy option. Nothing better than to mow down hundreds of cops, since this was the biggest heist ever pulled off in crime history. Can’t thank Lester’s brilliant brain enough for helping to make this a reality.
.
So, what now? It’s time to do what I paid $48 for; get some mods and go insane in Los Santos! Also, to try to get 100% completion (doing all the side missions, completing all the random events, possibly have to get Gold on every single mission(including ones I’ve already done that aren’t Gold)).
Another thing I’m going to do, is buy the hanger, boat dock, and helipad for Micheal, and the hanger for Franklin. Trevor can keep Sandy Shores Airfield.
Where do you get mods, you ask? You can find them here. Remember, some of these mods could contain adware. I can not be responsible if you find yourself in trouble.
